Certainty Turf Herbicide, manufactured by Valent, is an excellent selective, post-emergent herbicide containing the active ingredient Sulfosulfuron. Certainty Herbicide is easy to use and has a broad label for grass and broadleaf weeds.

This easy-to-use water-dispensable granule offers dependable control over hard-to-manage weeds through the active ingredient sulfosulfuron 75%. Its flexibility is further seen with its ability to be applied directly or over the top to newly seeded turf or established ornamentals in various seasons without harm. 

Certainty Turf Herbicide is ideal for quickly eliminating weeds in warm-seasoned turf. It also successfully removes unwanted cool-seasoned turfgrass such as fescue, perennial ryegrass, Poa annua, and poa trivialis.

Tools Needed

You will need to mix the product into a sprayer of your choosing, such as a backpack or hand-pump sprayer. For the average job, a hand-pump gallon sprayer works best.

How to Use

Selective Herbicide

  • Step 1: Determine how much Certainty Turf Herbicide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment site. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment site in feet and multiply them together (length x width = square footage). For acreage, divide the square footage by one acre (square footage / 43,560 = acre). A general application of Certainty Turf Herbicide will use 1.25 oz. of product (equivalent to 5 small (0.16 gram) scoops) per 10 to 15 gallons of water per acre. For smaller treatment areas, use 0.75 oz. (equivalent to 1 large (0.8 gram) scoop) per 3 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Add 2 teaspoons (1/3 fluid ounce) of nonionic surfactant per gallon of water. The combined total of all treatments must not exceed 2.66 oz. of this product per acre per year.
  • Step 2: In a sprayer of your choice, fill the sprayer three-fourths of the way with water and add the appropriate amount of product needed for your application. Fill the sprayer with water, close the lid, and shake the sprayer well to ensure it is mixed. Once mixed, add and mix in a nonionic surfactant to enhance the product.
  • Step 3: Spot treat or spray the target areas, preferably with the sprayer on a fan spray setting for uniform coverage. Monitor the weeds and apply Certainty Turf Herbicide as needed after 1 to 2 weeks to achieve complete control.

Where to Use

Certainty Turf Herbicide can be applied to labeled weeds on highly managed turf, native grasses, landscaped areas, and ornamental nurseries.
